It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Dear oh dear..that's the first thing that comes to mind when I think about Alien Apocalypse. Words just allude me when I try to come up with an accurate description of how terrible this movie is.Yes I do realize that it's a B movie..and it was made for TV on a budget fronted by a minimum wage McDonalds worker but honestly this is the best script they could come up with?! The special effects are just to say the least are..THE WORST SPECIAL EFFECTS EVER USED IN A MOVIE period. I challenge you to find a movie with worse special effects than this piece of crap. This movies' special effects make Shark Attack III: Megaladon look like a 200 million dollar industrial light and magic picture. I'm not even joking..when I was a freshman in High school we made some scenes with 3d Action Max and my reels were on par or better than the special effects of this film. Had they of put some paper machete onto a tall guy and had him growl it would probably have been more believable and scary than the aliens in this movie.It's not even entertaining. A good B movie is always a terrible movie..but in a good way. Yes this movie does have it's fair amount of funny moments but most of the time it's just painful to watch. Also what the heck is the deal with this plot?!! So apparently some termites got a hold of some steroids and grew bigger than humans and now they have enslaved humans and want them to log for them..so they can..eat the wood??? What?? Apparently you can kill these termites with a wooden spoon to..and these termites managed to take over our planet? These aliens are snooty little buggers to. You ask them what planet they're from and the "snarl" at you. How rude! I know that I'm being a bit harsh but seriously!!! I can take a dump with my video recorder and have a more sound and interesting plot than this movie. I weep for the future of films if crap like this keeps getting made.

This "SCI FI Original" feature is definitely worth a single viewing, if only for the very real chemistry between Bruce Campbell and Renee O'Connor during their more intimate scenes.In fact, those scenes actually make this film enjoyable, despite the low quality production efforts and the (painfully) agonizing line delivery by many of the voice actors used during looping.I pray Campbell and O'Connor are paired up in many more films, because their real-life chemistry soared above the material, and somehow made this flawed C-grade (almost Z-grade) film enjoyable, instead of intolerable, even after several viewings.Best Line: "Your stupidity is terminal, and now, you're cured." Best Scene: Foreplay between Campbell/O'Connor on the animal skins in the underground holding cell.

This movie is great. Read that again. No, I am not joking. The premise of the movie is that alien ant-like creatures have enslaved earth in order to get as much wood as they can. Bruce comes along to save the day. This movie is obviously a comedy. It's not meant to be taken seriously. The actors know this, the directory knows this, everyone knows this, except maybe the fans that plague IMDb. I will now try to explain my reasoning.1. Everyone wears fake beards. The Halloween kind. 2. Piles of wood explode. Like oil barrels. 3. This quote:Dr. Ivan Hood: Hey, scumbag! You forgot something. Bounty Hunter #3: What? (he is shot by a crossbow and drops down to his knees) Bounty Hunter #3: Ungh... you said you're a doctor. You're supposed to heal people. Dr. Ivan Hood: I am. Your stupidity is terminal. And now you're cured.The whole thing is a campy sci-fi, monster movie. It's a fun movie. Don't take it seriously. Oh and enjoy.

'Tis true that this one has Grade-Z effects, a dreadful script, and some of the worst acting imaginable, but I kind of suspect that the makers knew this, and a great deal of the cheesiness was intentional. If you love shockingly bad sci-fi movies, then there is a whole heap to enjoy about Alien Apocalypse. It's not a 'great' movie (and I'm not about to give it a ridiculously high rating), but it is a fun film that should ideally be enjoyed with like-minded friends (and plenty of alcohol).An astronaut/doctor, Ivan Hood (Bruce Campbell), returns to Earth after 40 years in suspended animation, to find that the planet has been overrun by insectoid aliens who are stripping the planet of its wood (which they eat). Together with fellow astronaut, Kelly (Renée O'Connor), and a small group of plucky slaves, he leads a revolt against the alien invaders.With dreadful support from a multitude of badly bewigged Eastern Europeans (and a leggy babe in a fur bikini), Campbell mugs his way through the lousy script with his usual aplomb. The special effects are rather poor, with the aliens being a mixture of animatronics and rather cheap looking CGI. However, there is a smatter of well conceived gore to compensate a little: the bugs chew off the heads of troublemakers and devour the severed fingers of those who attempt to escape. There are also several juicy shots of the aliens being killed, with green goop squirting from the wounds.Unpretentious, very silly and worth a go if trash sci-fi is your thang!
